Rough surface scattering theory is applied to the problem of estimating gravity-capillary wavenumber spectra from measurements of sea surface backscatter at high acoustic frequencies. Ensemble averaged scattering cross sections predicted by small-slope expansions are evaluated to examine the inversion of acoustic data assuming Bragg scatter. The ratio of the full fourth-order small-slope and Bragg predictions is found to exhibit a minimum value of ~ 2dB at moderate angles of incidence. At such angles, the corrections to perturbation theory depend weakly on acoustic frequency and environmental conditions. This latter finding indicates that only a modest effort is required to monitor sea surface conditions to estimate the correction. Corrections to Bragg predictions increase rapidly with increasing incidence angle and at high angles, the fourth-order contributions of the small-slope and extended small-slope expansions differ. This finding casts some doubt on the applicability of small-slope approximations to predict scattering at high-incidence angles.
